natural language processing, robot control, data analysis) • AI in Manufacturing – current and emerging applications of AI in manufacturing • Possible future developments in AI for manufacturing – long-term view of AI research

and applications in the next five to ten years • How to get started with integrating high ROI AI in your manufacturing business – what

are some high return AI techniques ready for integration today even for businesses that don’t in-house expertise or a large budget


Break-Out Session 3

Blockchain Applications

Speakers: Matt Kosche and Anthony Hargreaves, Clark Nuber Blockchain is one of the key innovations for the 21st century. Created by a person or a group of people known by the pseudonym, Satoshi Nakamoto. But since its conception in 2008, it has evolved into something much greater which no doubt is having a global impact. So, what is blockchain? In this presentation they were provided a 101 on the workings of blockchain with some commentary on how this technology is currently being used across crypto currencies such a Bitcoin, but more importantly how it will be applied to other industries and what impact or disruption that will have on those sectors.

Break-Out Session 4 - Human Systems Topgrading

Speaker: Michael Langhout

• Topgrading fixes your #1, most persistent, most frustrating problem – picking talent!

Extensive research shows you are typical if the people you hire turn out to be:

• Good Hires; 25% high performers; A performers| Mis-Hires ; 50% disappointing, “adequate,” but not as good as others available at the same pay; B performers; |25%

serious, costly mis-hires; C performers.

• This presentation provided a sequence of practical applied practice activities to teach Topgrading methods that dramatically reduce the extremely high costs of

mis-hires and achieve up to 90% high performers hired.


Break-Out Session 5 - SMED –

Single Minute Exchange of Dies or Quick Changeover Speaker: Jeff Root

Attendees learned how GM Nameplate has leveraged Quick Changeovers or Single Minute

Exchange of Dies to dramatically increase manufacturing flexibility, while reducing

manufacturing batch sizes, and lead times.


Lunch Keynote - Using Collaborative Robot (Cobots)

for Business Control Speaker: Craig Tomita

Universal Robots brought their small, UR3 (3kg maximum payload) robot. All UNIVERSAL

ROBOTS run on standard 110V AC, household current.

UR+ is a section of their website devoted to matching up manufacturers with end-effectors, hardware, software. UR+ companies are 3rd party companies that have submitted their products to UNIVERSAL ROBOTS for testing, vetting, and certification for compatibil-ity. They provide the ecosystem to make it easy to manufacturers to get compatible products that work with their robots, directly from those manufacturers.

They also have the UR Academy that provides free, interactive training on our robots – enough to quickly get started. Each of their four (4) US offices: Ann Arbor, MI; Dallas, TX;

Garden City, NY, and Irvine, CA offers free training.

Jim Pass, ModifI - Andrew Robing, Epicor Software – Hub Gilbert, nextLevel –

Steve Kidd, CIMtech

A panel discussion moderated by Dan Kocer with 6 executive panelists that are deeply

involved and invested in the future of manufacturing. The objective was to provide a vision of

how manufacturing will change and improve for medium-sized companies over the next 5

years. What technological and organizational changes are on the horizon that will be a

competitive advantage? What do manufacturers need to do now to prepare for and take

advantage of these opportunities? What preparation is needed for the organization, training

and hiring, management, facilities, and technology? The purpose of this panel discussion is

to look at all of the future technologies (robotics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, IoT,

etc.) and learn how they will impact your business.
